One, they'd royally screwed up, before the lawsuit.I think a huge, huge part of the problem is that because of the legal battle between the TTC and Bombardier, Bombardier can't be transparent about what's actually, specifically going on, so people come up with these fantastic theories about how they have board meetings rubbing their hands together trying to figure out the best way to make everyone in Toronto miserable.
Two, they've come out with at least 2, and probably 3, completely fictional schedules since the lawsuit - so they are hardly keeping quiet. They continue to act in bad faith.
Ultimately, the solution is that TTC needs to award this to the next lowest bidder, and then have the court force Bombardier to pay TTC the difference between the $5 million per car that Bombardier bid, and what the next bidder bid (about $7.5 million per car). This is pretty standard, and TTC has gone to the Supreme Court of Canada with previous contractors to force exactly that solution.
